Mrs. Womach Dies At Cheney
	Mrs. Mandy J. Womach, wife of A. J. Womach, living six miles from town, 
died suddenly last Saturday evening from heart failure. She had been subject to 
attacks of this nature, and when Mr. Womach arrived home from town in the 
evening she complained of feeling somewhat indisposed. He suggested that a 
doctor be summoned by telephone, but she stated that it was nothing serious, and 
that it was unnecessary to call a physician. He insisted, however, and a 
physician from Spangle was summoned. He examined her and stated that she would 
soon recover, and he made prepartions for leaving. In a few moments she called 
Mr. Womach and attempted to rise. The end immediately followed and she died in 
his arms.
	Mrs. Womach was born in Kentucky on Feb. 22, 1877, and when 12 years of 
age came to Colfax, Wash., with her parents. She was married to A. J. Womach at 
Colfax in 1894 and lived in Cheney and vicinity for the past nine years. She 
leaves a husband, five children, a father, four brothers and one sister. Her 
father and brothers live in Whitman county, and were present at the funeral. Her 
children are Beulah, aged 15, Earl, aged 12, Careence, aged 10, Owen, aged 7, 
and Eunice, aged 5. L. A. Womach and Mrs. Mary Hansen of Ritzville, a brother 
and sister of A. J. Womach, also were present at the funeral, and also a niece, 
Miss Annie Hansen.
